55The most beautiful sniff spot we have ever been to! Absolutely stunning, all the pups had a blast. The walk through the pasture was a bit stressful for one of our pups but it’s short. Fabulous and magical place!Casey S.

55If I could give this place 5,000,000 stars, I would. Same with our pup, Freyja. We brought her here as a gift for her 3rd birthday, and she had the time of her life! Baked her a cake, and let her run around worry-free for 3.5 hours! John has got to be one of the most kind-hearted and animal loving people out there, and we were blessed for the opportunity to enjoy his and Stephanie's land. Thank you a million, and we will DEFINITELY be back!!! An experience of a lifetime. Hailee S.

55I was nervous at first about bringing 4 reactive dogs to a Hobby Farm, but the owners welcomed us with a smile and guided us, gave us space when we needed it, and we had the pleasure of seeing and learning about all of their beautiful livestock animals. It was so nice to enjoy their beautiful park for the evening with my pups, I look forward to visiting again soon. Makaela L.

55Great place for my reactive pup who can’t always get out on the hiking trails with me. Gave him the stress free hiking environment he needs every so often to let loose and have fun exploring off leash. Will definitely be back!Emma R.

55What a wonderful experience! John was great and my dog loved him, he helped us settle in, get to know the property. and even provided a cute map. Lots of fun animals that were so curious and comfortable with my pup. This is the perfect place for him to explore and he had the best time. Can’t wait to visit the farm again! Freda H.

55Visited this gorgeous spot with my pup and partner for the second time yesterday! We love this Sniffspot so much - John and his family are so kind. The trails are pristine and we love the little cabin deck to have a nice picnic lunch. It’s truly a wonderful little slice of heaven and we’re so excited to continue visiting this summer! Vanessa B.

55This is a beautiful spot, with a meadow and streams to play in and lots of fun little trails. We were there for 90 minutes, and we did not get bored! You will initially pass through a field with some cows, a goat, and turkeys, so be prepared if your dog has a strong prey drive, as mine does. Also keep in mind that there is a quiet road that runs along the top of the property, and there is no fence between the property and the road. I mention this for those whose dogs might not be good about staying out of roads (or who want to chase cars, as mine does!). I would highly recommend this Sniffspot, and I'm looking forward to visiting again! Sara E.

55Such a beautiful gem. My dogs absolutely loved running all up and down through the woods and in the streams. The trails were beautifully maintained and benches all throughout for sitting to listen to the stream and admire the beautiful landscape. The host, Stephanie was so nice and welcoming and I truly enjoyed learning about their fabulous place. Lots of farm animals wandering around in the pasture area and the dogs did great around them. I loved the beautiful turkey walking around and fanning his feathers!
Such a wonderful place, I felt like I was a friend when I left and the dogs got so much enjoyment they slept the whole way home!Nicole L.

55We love Spring Acres and return to it often. It’s very private and it has everything a dog could want - wooded trails, creeks and for the ball obsessed canine, large open areas to play fetch. The only thing it doesn’t have is an ocean beach but for the salty sea pup in your family there are a couple sandy areas by the creek to nose around in! The property is really beautiful right now too with all the spring growth emerging. It’s still muddy so be sure to wear appropriate shoes or boots. Stephanie and John keep improving the spot too with things like new trailhead signage and a new trail. All in all it’s a great spot!Bonnie B.

55Spring Acres is the place to be! Stephanie is a wonderful host who met us to give an introduction to the park and provided a beautifully illustrated map. It was so much fun for us to wander the trails and sit and listen to the creek and the breeze. The park is spacious, charming and well maintained. Most definitely worth the trip from the city!Karen D.

FAQ about our Eatonville dog hiking trails
Are dog hiking trails safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, inattentive owners, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than a city or county park. With a Sniffspot off-leash area all bookings are private for just you and dogs you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). All Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars. Our hiking trails tend to be outside the city, which lends to more privacy, but it is also important to follow typical hiking safety precautions, such as potentially having trail maps.
How do I know if a dog hiking trail works for my dog?
Sniffspot provides the tools to find the ideal spot. Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing 6 feet tall and distractions, to find a dog park with trails that works for your dog. You can also filter by size if you are looking for a certain acre park, an expansive off-leash dog park. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our fully fenced dog hiking trails. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog hiking trails where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. Since you are looking for trails, make sure to check photos to see if it the spot has flat trails or gnarly trails. You can also browse by specific amenities, if you are looking for a view or a beach, for instance, or other activities or fun features. You can check whether the spot has off or on street parking, the regular park hours, whether it has paved trails or a modern restroom.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot dog hiking trail?
In order to hike the trails, we require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not permit dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot hiking trail at the same time as me?
Sniffspot only allows one booking at a time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the spot during visits. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between bookings.
